New Year, New Studio!

Just before the Christmas holidays in December, my partner and I moved to a lovely home in the heart of Wortley Village in London, Ontario. When we first viewed this heritage property, it boasted many great features including a beautiful backyard, stained glass windows and bountiful natural light. We were also delighted to learn that we would be living on the same street where Canadian artist, Greg Curnoe, had his first painting studio.

About two weeks before we moved, I was inspired by the exciting idea to transform the back rooms of the house from a traditional office into a fully functional studio. After several weeks of unpacking, furniture assembly, shelf installation and organizing – I am pleased to share with you a few photos of our initial setup.

This home-based studio space will allow more flexibility around my production schedule and additional space for pieces in-progress. With dedicated areas for hand-building or sculptural work and my own personal wheel, I intend to explore a variety of new techniques.
